Linguamatics joins Accelrys ISV program

Cambridge, UK – Linguamatics, a leader in enterprise text mining, today announced a partnership agreement with Accelrys, Inc. (NASDAQ: ACCL), the leading scientific informatics software and services company, which sees the integration of I2E, Linguamatics’ agile, natural language processing (NLP) based text mining technology with Pipeline Pilot™, Accelrys’ scientific informatics platform. Mutual customers will benefit by embedding powerful natural language querying within more extensive informatics workflows including access via Accelrys web clients.

Organizations continue to face the challenge of filtering ever-increasing volumes of text information to gain actionable knowledge.

We are pleased to partner with Accelrys to meet this challenge, unlocking value from text across the organization and raising productivity.”
